I know I'm a little late posting these this year, but hopefully you can still find some quick and easy ideas here, and feel inspired to create an inviting and meaningful table to gather around with your loved ones this Easter! I have ditched all my usual colorful props in favor of a more neutral, relaxing and peaceful style in-keeping with the faith-filled ambiance I was trying to create for this neutral Easter tablescape and DIY mantel decor.
Easter Kids DIY Pastel Tablescape
Last year I styled a family table for Easter , so this year I decided to create a tablescape that was more fit for the kids. Now, more than ever, I find the need to celebrate the everyday. Finding beauty and comfort in the smallest, "mundane" things, treasuring family time and remembering that no matter how frightening things may seem, that there's always something to be grateful for and to celebrate!
My Pastel Easter Brunch Tablescape
Easter is only a few weeks away, so I thought it would be the perfect time to share this pastel Easter brunch tablescape that I put together for our celebrations at home! The decor of my Easter table this year was inspired by spring and pastel colors in pink, yellow, blue and green, which also happen to match beautifully with our Easter Bunny printable decorations !
Did you see the floral Easter brunch table I shared last week? Well, these cute faux grass place-mats were also a DIY job. I love to use materials or re-purpose fabrics I already have at home, and with these grass place-mats I did just that! It's a simple, quick and easy DIY and perfect for Easter brunch table for also for any spring celebration or even Mother's Day.
DIY Floral Table Runner
As promised in my Easter brunch post , today I'll be sharing the how-to for that gorgeous, but oh-so-simple, DIY floral table runner! This year I wanted something very colorful and very floral for my Easter brunch table, but that was also easy to make (possibly made in advance) and that packed the wow factor! I think this floral table runner ticks all the boxes, non?! 😊
Brazilian Carrot Bundt Cake Recipe
Did you see the floral Easter brunch we shared last week? ( click here to see the photos ). Well, this Brazilian carrot bundt cake has become a sort of tradition in our home at Easter. Not only because of it's so tasty with its creamy chocolate ganache and fun, bright orange color, but because it's also super simple to make. And mainly, because it's a cake recipe passed down from my mom! 😊

Easter is 'round the corner and as promised in my last post , today' I'll be sharing a delicious, savory cake recipe that's perfect for your brunch! This is not a novel idea. My mom has been making savory cakes for years, with chicken, Spring vegetables, tuna etc. But this smoked salmon version is perfect for Easter brunch, don't you think?!
A Modern Floral Easter Brunch
This year for Easter, we styled a super pretty floral brunch that's fresh and colorful, but also easy to put together. And you know how much we all love "easy" 'round here! 😉 Hope you love the creative ideas as much as I do, and feel inspired to inject a little floral action into your own Easter or Spring celebrations!

DIY Nail Polish Marbled Easter Eggs
There are tons of Easter egg decoration ideas and DIYs on Pinterest . But to be honest, some of them are just too involved, or not child-friendly or require blowing out eggs (who has time or patience for that?!). So I just came up with the pretties and EASIEST Easter egg decorating technique , using a medium you already have at home - nail polish! ! :)
How to Set up an Easter Waffle Bar
Last year we had a mimosa bar as part of our Easter brunch ( you can see it here ). It was such a hit with everyone, that this year I'm still going the self-service bar for brunch. But with waffles! The cute bunnies from our traditional Easter Printable Kit are the perfect match for this "Hoppy Easter" styling. I like that's it's not too girly, since my boy wouldn't approve anyways ;)
DIY Easter Bunny Treat Tubes for Kids
Bunny and Easter eggs crafts are not in shortage on Pinterest . But I tend to seek out EASY craft and DIY ideas that kids can help to make...or something that I can put in a ' craft kit' format for parties, like for Easter brunch. And this year, I'm giving the kiddos these cute DIY Easter Bunny candy tube kits so we can all have fun making crafting cuteness at Easter!
